Episode 14: “The Impervious Battleship Egan,” or A Visit From the Goon Squad, Part II

Bagg and Dukes talk about whether the happy-ish outcomes are earned, and meditate on Proust’s epigram about memory. They wonder if the opposite of time as a ravager would be "Time, The Accepted Force that Propels Our Life Forward for Better or Worse?"
